Thank You!
 
You all are the very best :grouphug:

I am so glad you enjoyed the pictures.
It really is a blessing because I get to enjoy them nearly everyday, it is what keeps my world going around.

That drum set was bought because that little drummer was drumming on everything with her wooden spoons. Even though she has drumsticks she likes the wooden spoons better. LOL

He is my nephew's little boy.

We had my nephew and his bothers and sister living with us most of their lives. Even today they are over at least 3 times a week. You know I love it!!!

The first two are Daniel, and the last are Brooklynn here at home.

kejbrew 05-11-2007 08:41 PM

Hey Allen,

Congratulations - you have some wonderful grandchildren there. And I see that Daniel is hot off of the press. Your family is blessed to be fruitful and multiplying!

Best regards,

awwwww
 
Lucky you! Give those two new additions a gentle hug from me, and take a deep whiff of that "new baby smell" while you're at it, lol.

My youngest son Drew has been married a year now, but I think it'll be a while before there are any grandbabies for me to hold :( good for them, bad for me, lmao!

frogga 06-18-2007 05:49 PM

Hey Allen,

Congrats on becoming grandpa to number 6! The photos are gorgeous! as is Brooklyn I will go with the consensus and go that if any of them go missing they may turn up in... well, the UK (Hey, everyone says an English education is amazing lol).

Love

Frogga xxxxx

Desi 06-18-2007 06:05 PM

Hi Frogga! wished I lived in the UK I heard that English education is the best as well as in Hong Kong.. hey, "That's "Our Pat!" (artist) yea!!:D Oh, P.S. Artist, I just love your web page.. amazing.. thanks!! Love, Desi

frogga 06-18-2007 06:43 PM

Hey Desi,

English eduactions - pretty good. I went to a Montesorri nursery from about 8 months till I was 2 1/2 years old and then moved on to a private girls only catholic school run by the Sisters of Mercy. Then went to a cathedral boarding school in Ely. Boarding was bizzare but pretty cool - I only left that school because of getting the RSD and because there was no wheelchair access in the entire school! (and my bedroom was on the 3rd floor). The school was totally eccentric though as many of the teachers didn't have teaching degrees, they were just passionate about the subject they taught. We were also supposed to learn latin, greek, english, french and spanish (and german before the age of 13) and in order to "optimise exam performance" we were taught all our geography classes in french, which was fine, until the week before when they explained we would be sitting the actual geography exam in english and then a french exam in french. Odd! We were also all expected to be musical, compete in athletics, drama and outward bound - it was compulsery for two years for us to learn to climb, kayak, row, shoot, sail and all sorts of odd stuff. But, I suppose a lot of it has come in useful in ways never imagined!!!! LOL

How are you anyway?

Froggsy xxxxxxxxxxxx

Vicc 06-18-2007 07:27 PM

Hey Allen,

We talk a lot on the phone and I've told you that you are my best friend today. Granted that all of the friends I've ever made are separated now by time and distance and the fact that my injuries have left me socially isolated. I don't even know how to try to locate any of my old friends, but I would have thought of you as best freind material no matter when I met you.

Everyone here knows that what I wrote about you a long time ago is true: You have been the Corpsman on the battlefield who ignores his wounds to help others even more injured -- in crushing physical and emotional pain. When someone cries out, you are there for them. That's the kind of person you want for a best friend.

So, my best friend, I'm about to blow you out of the water with this granddaughter stuff. Brooklyn is beautiful and all that, but she's only a granddaughter:

On Friday, June 8, 2007, at 7:51 PM, Kamdyn Michelle Collins was born. She weighed 7 pounds, 3 ounces and was 19" long, AND she is my first great-grandchild.

You feel old because you have grandchildren? Hey, pal, lots of people here have grandchildren; when great-grandchildren start arriving you don't just feel old, you are old.

Good grief!!! I only knew one of my great-grandparents, and he was so old he just sat in the corner mumbling and drooling. Now its my turn. If I had Alzheimer's I might forget that I have a great-granddaughter once in a while, then I wouldn't feel so damn old.

Congratulations, I guess, to both of us...Vic

unrouley1 06-18-2007 07:54 PM

gorgeous! what a wonderful gift!

God bless!
angie

carose 06-18-2007 08:49 PM

Congrats Vic
 
on becoming a GREAT Grandpa, bet she is as beautiful as her name!! Blesses to all, and I hope years for now she remembers you for the wonderful person you are now.:hug: Carose

allentgamer 06-18-2007 09:45 PM

Vic!!
 
Congrats bro!!

Man I am not looking forward to the GREAT title LOL!

I also only had one great grandparent, and she just about sat there mumbling and drooling hahahaha! The only time we saw her was on holidays when they took her out for the day.

When she died we went to clean out her apartment, and I found some rolled up 20 dollar bills. I mean really rolled up into these tight little balls. Well we searched the place, and found them stuffed in the wall sockets, holes in the wall, mattress pretty much anywhere you could put one. We found a little more than 10,000 dollars, and was wondering how much we didnt find LOL.

To bad I wasnt the only one there lol.

Gotta love the kiddos! Sometimes it gets a little bit noisy when all the kids and grandkids come over :eek: Luckily it only lasts a few hours.

Now the 2 year old I believe my daughter might just give away right now :winky:

Can ya say TERRIBLE 2's :)

Vicc 06-18-2007 09:56 PM

Carose, by the time she's old enough to remember me, I will be that old guy in the corner, mumbling and drooling and rolled out so the family can look at me on holidays.

Allen; I have a standing offer to take any infant and keep and love and spoil him or her until she/he is two years old. Then the parents gotta take the kid back. Yuppers, I have vivid memories of the "terrible two's"; 4 kids and 8 grandkids worth...Vic
